Laura has made an immense contribution to the Faculty since she arrived on the Faculty Council in 2007, serving as President from 2012-2015 and before that as Vice President from 2009-2012. She has steered the Faculty through a period of development both philosophically and in the range of our teaching, leading to the Faculty being in a strong position with a buoyant student body around the world, exciting new ways to study from online seminars to working with Heaven and Earth workshops and the successful launch of our recently published book The Journey through Astrology. The Faculty is delighted to confer on Laura the Fellowship of the Faculty of Astrological Studies which is a recognition of her significant contribution, commitment and service to the Faculty and to astrology, and we wish her well as she leaves us to pursue her academic work with the Sophia Centre and her ongoing PhD.
